Quickie: Introducing NextGuide Web

Posted on May 20, 2013 by Jeremy Toeman

TL;DR version: “Pinterest meets Evernote meets TV Guide” 🙂

Today we introduced NextGuide Web. NextGuide Web is a new site that helps people find and explore TV shows and movies and see what their friends recommend and watch. The site lets users discover and watch shows on live TV and popular streaming services including Amazon Prime, Amazon Instant Video, iTunes, Hulu Plus, and Netflix.

What can you do with it?

Single Search – No more need to browse site after site to find your favorite show on a streaming service – search once on NextGuide for combined live and streaming results.

Universal Watchlist and Queue – No need to maintain unique queues on all your favorite sites, just create one list at NextGuide for anything you’d ever like to see.

Automatic Reminders – For any show or movie, set a reminder and NextGuide can email you whenever there’s a new airing on live TV or any streaming service.

One Click to Watch amp; Record to DVR – When browsing shows, NextGuide includes direct links to watch on streaming services, or queue recordings to your home DVR (note: DVR features only for Comcast and DIRECTV subscribers at present).

Social Recommendations – Easily discover what shows and movies your Facebook friends are Liking, and get recommendations from other people who watch similar shows and movies as you do.

For an example, here’s my personal TV profile on NextGuide.
